“Tks Markaysha, you take care very well the Dom, our little boy enjoyed a lot the time with you.”


About: I have taken care of animals my entire life, I grew up on a farm with plenty of dogs, cats, horses, goats, parrots and more. I am a stay at home mom who can provide round the clock care for your pets. Your pet will receive plenty of love and attention in our home. We have 2 dogs and 1 cat of our own. Our 6 year old male golden retriever and 6 year old male corgi (both neutered) are great with other dogs and love to play. Our cat can be secured during your pet’s stay if they are not good with/never been around a cat. I am comfortable with puppies and senior care. I am a nurse by trade so I also do not mind to give medications if needed. I am a stay at home mom so I am usually home most of the day, every day. I will be here to feed, love, and exercise your pet. I do have a 2 year old who loves animals so I can only take pets that are comfortable with small children. I am a stay at home mom, so I am home mostly all day to be able to provide the best care for your pet. We live on 5 acres of land but do not have a fenced in yard. Our pets do not go outside unsupervised but they are unleashed. If your pet needs leashed for potty breaks, no biggie! They will have plenty of room to run and we typically take daily walks.

“Payton is an amazing dog and puppy sitter. My fur babies were well taken care of and any one that books with him is getting the best service. He demonstrated patience and care for my babies.”


About: Hi! I used to work with animals as a bather as a salon for a few years! I used to work with dementia patients also at a nursing home! I’m currently in college doing my pre requisites for nursing! I have all free time now to watch your fur babies! Yes I can mostly care for your pet every day I’m really free. Monday through Sunday I am available and I’m available at any times throughout the day or night! I have a beagle of my own and I take great care of her that’s my baby and I rather care for your pet in your home than mine we’re doing renovations. I always get my cuddles in with the animals and make sure they are happy!! I always want to make sure they know they are safe and secure with me.I want them to feel comfortable and happy of my company.

About: I have owned and cared for dogs for 10 years, possibly more. I have experience in nutrition, pet behavior, training, etc. Either I or my girlfriend are home all the time, so we can do whatever you want, whenever you want us to. And what's even better is that your beloved pets can stay home and be taken care of, rather than endure the stress of a boarding facility. I am comfortable running with your dog, playing till your dog passes out (a tired dog is a happy dog), or just snuggling on the couch watching some tv. It's whatever your dog wants to do! I am very well rounded and I do this because I absolutely love dogs and their people. In our free time, we enjoy traveling and competing in dog sports such as obedience, FastCAT, disc, as well as being professional photographers for those events. We have our own personal dogs, but to ensure everyone's safety, personal dogs and client dogs are always kept separate unless the owner specifies their dog is friendly and wants them to have play time with other dogs. Just let me know! Our husky and cardigan are bombproof with all other dogs and would be more than happy to play with your babies! I work part time (less than 20 hours per week) but if I happen to work on a day your pet stays with me, my girlfriend is always home and is the only person I'd ever trust with my own dog! Your pet is always in safe hands here! We have a 6 foot fully fenced yard, but will take dogs out on leash if they are escape artists that like to test fences and find a way to escape. Dogs are never ever allowed off leash outside of the fence.

About: I have been surrounded by many different animals my entire life. I have experience at shelters, working in a veterinary clinic, rotating through the College of Veterinary Medicine and pet-sitting. I am a senior in the Veterinary Medical Technology Program at Mississippi State University expecting to graduate in May of 2025. My schedule varies but my calendar stays updated! I have a fenced in back yard and plenty of fences and kennels to use if needed. In the client’s home I will be able to offer check in visits, walks, and enrichment.

About: i love all animals and i would love to get to know your wonderful pet. i have been taking care of pets since i was little. my mom and dad always helped me understand that if you want a pet you have to take care of it. so i would love to take care of your fur babies. i am a part time worker on the weekend night and a full time student at icc i love to take care of animals and enjoy being around them i will have plenty time throughout the day to take care of your lovely animals. in my clients home i will keep the pup on schedule. if they need medication and or special treatment it will be on time every day. we will take many potty breaks and walks.


About: I've cared for dogs my entire life, having learned about pet health through years of experience with behavior, illnesses, basic pet care (flea and tick control and heartworms) and medicine distribution. I currently have 10 of my own in a home shared with my parents. I have dogs that range from 25-150 pounds, so no dog is too small or too large! I have a hearty desire to ensure your pets are cared for just like they are my own! NOTE: I wish to visit your pet before your booking begins to ensure that we get along well and that you, the pet-owner, can show me the basic ropes (where food is located, what a routine day is for your dog or dogs, etc.) I WILL watch multiple dogs for you! I am a full time pet care provider and groomer. I do have a part time job that is only a few days a week, for a few hours. I have animals in a fenced yard as well as on a wireless fence with collar. I do not take pets into my home for sitting, but I gladly come to them.

8. Mallory J.
“Mallory Johnston has been our house/pet sitter for several of our extended out of town trips. It is wonderful to be able to leave town with the knowledge that your pets and your house will be responsibly looked after. We have multiple cats and it's a full-time challenge to look after them, it's more than just food and water. Mallory is knowledgeable about animal care and she will consult the vet if there is any question about special care needed We highly recommend her.”
